CAUTION: Connect the oil pressure gauge set securely, be sure not to allow dust and other foreign particles to enter the inspection holes.

6. Start the engine, and run it at 2,000 rpm.
7. Shift to N or P position, and measure line pressure.

NOTE: Higher pressure may be indicated if measurements are made in shift lever positions other than N or P position.





8. Shift to the respective shift lever position, and measure clutch pressure as shown.
